On a white background, a Canadian flag appears on a flagpole. An airport appears next to the flagpole, an increasing number of plans are flying in and out of the airport.

Narration: Air travel allows us to explore the world and brings travellers to our door step.

Zoom into the CBSA Hall within the airport. Canadian flags appear, hanging from the ceiling. Border services officers appear in their booths. A growing queue of travellers line up for primary inspection, quickly filling up the entire queuing space.

Narration: Volumes continue to grow so Canada's airports are modernizing to improve service.

A plane crosses the screen. Cut to the inside of an airplane. An airline attendant is standing in the aisle. A declaration card appears in his hand. The declaration card slowly rotates once on the screen while becoming bigger. It stops in the middle of the screen. The words "Declaration card" can be read in the top right corner of the card. The CBSA logo is in the top left corner of the card.

The Declaration card transitions into a kiosk. The kiosk shrinks a little. A traveller appears next to the kiosk. The kiosk and traveller get bigger. The traveller scans a document. The traveller moves in front of the kiosk. The kiosk takes the traveller's picture and the traveller's picture appears on the kiosk screen. A bottle of wine appears on the right of the kiosk. The bottle moves onto the kiosk screen and disappears. A line appears with a check mark indicating the item was added to the declaration. A dollar sign appears on the left of the kiosk. The dollar sign moves onto the kiosk screen and disappears. A second line appears with a check mark indicating the item was added to the declaration. A pineapple appears on the right of the kiosk. The pineapple moves onto the kiosk screen and disappears. A third line appears with a check mark indicating the item was added to the declaration.
